Filter by:This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of the compound MIJ821 compared to placebo in patients aged from 18 to 65 years diagnosed with treatment-resistant depression. The study was conducted in the US and in Europe (Spain). The MIJ821 was administered via infusion on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. The efficacy was measured after 24 hours using a specific golden standard scale, the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale. The study duration was 6 weeks of treatment plus 1 month of follow up period.
The overall goal of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a widely available and widely used combinatorial pharmacogenomic (PGx) test for the treatment of major depressive disorder. Pharmacogenomic tests use genetic information to guide medication treatment decisions. The tests inform clinicians and patients of potential gene-drug interactions by analyzing pharmacokinetic (PK) genes (how drugs are metabolized) as well as pharmacodynamic (PD) genes (how drugs work). While combinatorial PGx testing is attractive to clinicians, patients, healthcare systems, and insurers, limited data demonstrate that PGx testing will result in better outcomes compared to evidence-based guideline treatment. Therefore, the investigators will conduct a prospective randomized comparative effectiveness study of best practice guidelines plus combinatorial PGx-guided treatment versus best-practice guideline concordant treatment alone.
Executive function deficits are common in late life depression (LLD) and are associated with resistance to antidepressants, poor quality of life, considerable disability and increased suicidal risk. This study uses a novel type of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation called intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS). iTBS delivers high frequency (50Hz) magnetic pulses in "bursts" of 3 stimuli. It is posited that this intervention induces plasticity in the human cortex. Theoretical and empirical evidence from research studies informs that iTBS can improve depression and executive deficits, however, this has not been examined in older adults. This project examines iTBS's ability to improve depression and executive impairment in LLD. It also tests the effects of iTBS on brain connectivity within the Cognitive Control Network (CCN). This study will enhance understanding of LLD, providing critical pilot data to develop future randomized controlled clinical trials. Both active and sham interventions are administered sequentially to the left and right dorso-lateral prefrontal cortex. The total stimulation time is about 7 minutes. These interventions are administered for 6 weeks (Monday-Friday). 20 subjects will be randomized. Changes in mood from baseline to the end of study are measured with the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale. Executive function at baseline and end of study are evaluated with the National Institutes of Health Toolbox executive domain battery. Safety assessments include: the 21 item Scale for suicidal ideation SSI. The frequency, intensity and burden of side effects rating (FIBSER) and the Altman Self Rating Mania scale (ASRM). Ancillary depression measures include the Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptoms (QIDS) and the Clinical Global Impression of Improvement scale. Subjects undergo functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) before and after the study interventions to test the effects of iTBS on the brain's functional connectivity. This research will provide meaningful information about the effects of iTBS on mood and executive function in older adults as well as information regarding its effects on brain function. Results of this pilot study will inform a grant submission and allow investigators to calculate power for a definitive randomized controlled clinical trial to test the efficacy of iTBS versus placebo.
The purpose of this study is to compare sleep neurophysiology and behavior in adolescents with MDD with hypersomnia (MDD-HYP) and insomnia (MDD-INS) with healthy controls (HC). In addition, the investigators will test the efficacy of a simple behavioral sleep restriction on mood and sleep in their sample.
120 consecutive female patients, 18-65 years old, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I to II, scheduled for hysteroscopic surgery under propofol-based intravenous anesthesia will be recruited in this cohort study. The day before surgery, participants will be assessed the state of preoperative anxiety and depression. On the day of surgery, propofol will be administered by target controlled infusion (TCI) pump. During induction of anesthesia, the level of sedation will be evaluated. The induction dose of propofol, target effect-site concentration(Cet), plasma concentration(Cp) and effect-site concentration (Ce) of propofol will be recorded.
Using neuroimaging, the investigator will study the effects of estrogen on mood and brain function in perimenopausal women with depression.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Hypidone Hydrochloride tablets in treatment of patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) by evaluating the change of MADRS total scores from baseline to week 6.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of cariprazine as an adjunctive treatment to antidepressant therapy (ADT) in patients with MDD who have had an inadequate response to antidepressants alone.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of cariprazine as an adjunctive treatment to antidepressant therapy (ADT) in patients with MDD who have had an inadequate response to antidepressants alone.
This trial is a 52-week study to assess the safety of long-term use of brexpiprazole as adjunctive therapy in combination with an antidepressant.
